uBlock mainly. Thinking about setting up pi-hole on a box and using that instead though. I know many people around here use it.
ublock origin
DNS RPZ
uBlock origin and privacy badger (which blocks social share buttons for example).
What about mobile solutions? ublock also?
DNSGuard/Epicbrowser
None. Im a marketer, so it would be suicide. Studying material.
I planed to run a porn site months ago with unlimited pop up ad. But I am using ublock. Is that the reason I fail?
pfsense + pfblockerng with 9.9.9.9 as upstream resolver
you could also run DNSMASQ on a vps local to your city with a good blocklist and prob achieve same results.
Yes.
All ads have the same fundamental persuasive structure and you should always be researching.
Although this is a shitty unfunny joke.
I really planned to do that... And fuck up because the asia traffic is expensive. The paradox is that I want people to watch my ads but I try to block ads. Shame.
ublock for browsers and adblocking dns for mobile apps

Well yes personally I think it's unethical to block ads. If you feel a site is intrusive don't use it, but 99% of ad based sites are free and depend on advertising as their only source of revenue.
If I find value from the site I'll either use it or not. Ads included.
ublock origin with a few extra lists
and running some of the domain lists used by pihole but with powerdns
on mobile (android) it's ublock origin in firefox but i need to find a new browser...
also running some other extensions like privacy badger etc, but their purpose isn't exactly ad blocking
Both my primary and secondary DNS servers run Pi-hole.
It blocks everything except urethral porn?
any solution for twitch ads?
Most sites I frequent are whitelisted, any pop-ups/unders, autoplay video or flashing banners gets uBlock enabled.
A custom hosts file & uBlock Origin with:
Disable pre-fetching (to prevent any connection for blocked network requests) Disable hyperlink auditing Parse and enforce cosmetic filters My filters uBlock filters uBlock filters – Badware risks uBlock filters – Privacy uBlock filters – Resource abuse uBlock filters – Unbreak Adblock Warning Removal List EasyList EasyPrivacy Malware Domain List Malware domains Peter Lowe’s Ad and tracking server listany solution for twitch ads?
uBlock should be enough.
uBlock and pi-hole
I use uBlock Origin of course, but just discovered that there's a couple of blockers for YT specifically. I just installed AdBlocker for Youtube, so we'll see how that goes. So far it seems to clean things up quite a bit.
You and I have different ethics.
Personally I think the only responsible thing is to block ads whenever possible.
That said, when I like what they have on a site that I visit regularly, I make a point of disabling my ad blocker because I feel I have a relationship with those sites. Random sites just take up more load time with the ads, and basically just irritate me. There is no marketing win for them.
uBlock at public wireless, and KidProtect at home.
Traditional ads will be a thing of the past when we finally invent a more effective method of brainwashing.
umatrix with default deny on everything 3rd party and first party javascript (individually whitelisted as necessary)
I hate spinning cpu fans.
Pi-hole + OpenVPN = no ads on all your devices
Unlock origin for PC's then pihole for rest
from where do you think the whole push for VR comes from if not from advertisers?
The main reason I install ad block is for the YouTube ads. The most stupid ads implementation I ever seen.
From people who honestly think this is the next big entertainment thing?
nasty lot
